Implement multi-monitor support for Xorg

Hello. I’m using the MX Linux xfce_64 ISO and when launching Hosaka, it does not show the dialog to choose the screen / window, even if I have a second monitor connected. It also does not show the text that lets me change the selected screen:


Not sure if logs would help but you can check the logs for MX Linux in this specific comment:

    Support for selecting a screen to record hasn’t actually been implemented on X11 (judging by the logs you were on X11), only Wayland (it’s built-in for the latter). I’ll take a look at implementing X11 multi-monitor support this week or next.

    That’s also why that text isn’t displayed - because it triggers the Wayland sharing portal (but only when on Wayland).
